"Danaë" is a series of at least five oil paintings by the Italian Renaissance artist Titian, completed between 1544 and 1562. The paintings depict the mythological story of Danaë, as recounted by the Roman poet Ovid in his "Metamorphoses." Danaë was a princess of Argos in Greek mythology who was confined to a bronze tower by her father, King Acrisius, after a prophecy foretold that her son would kill him. Despite the king's efforts, Zeus visited her in the form of golden rain, impregnating her with the future hero Perseus.

Titian's renditions of this mythological theme are celebrated for their sensuous portrayal of Danaë and the masterful use of color, a hallmark of Titian's mature style. The most famous of these paintings is perhaps the version commissioned by Cardinal Alessandro Farnese in 1544, now housed in the Museo di Capodimonte, Naples. This particular piece is noted for its eroticism, innovative composition, and its pivotal role in the development of Western painting, influencing a wide array of artists from Rembrandt to Velázquez.

The "Danaë" paintings are significant in Titian's oeuvre, representing a shift towards a more personal and intimate style of painting, characterized by dynamic brushwork and a richer color palette. Each version of Danaë, while similar in subject, exhibits unique variations in details, pose, and mood, reflecting the evolution of Titian's artistic concerns and his response to different patronal demands. These works not only underscore Titian's mastery of oil painting but also contribute to the visual and thematic exploration of classical mythology during the Renaissance.
